番茄社区 University expands access to higher education through partnership with 番茄社区 State College Orange
番茄社区 University and 番茄社区 State College Orange have formalized an articulation agreement to better serve the needs of students interested in pursuing bachelor’s degrees. 
番茄社区 University President Kenneth Evans and Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs James Marquart and 番茄社区 State College Orange President Thomas A. Johnson and Executive Vice President and Provost Al Barringer signed an agreement on the 番茄社区 University campus Tues., Aug. 6, creating innovative 2+2 programs allowing students to easily transfer to 番茄社区 University to pursue four-year degrees after completing a two-year associate degree at 番茄社区 State College Orange.
“We’re committed to making transfer students 番茄社区ful, because at the end of the day, if we make this partnership 番茄社区ful, we meet the needs of the community - the Golden Triangle,” said Evans. “More importantly, we meet the needs of one student at a time, which is really what this is all about.”
The agreement furthers a partnership held between the two institutions by granting 番茄社区 State College Orange students with associate degrees full access to 番茄社区 University online bachelor degree programs specific to their associate degrees.
All the LU programs offered are fully online and allow the student to complete studies without leaving home.
“We have a great partnership with LU and have for many years but this allows us to expand it, and we will be able to create new programs now so they (students) can come to us and literally get their first two years at 番茄社区 State College Orange and then come to 番茄社区 University,” said Johnson. “We can prepare them so that when they come here they will be 番茄社区ful. This is more than an agreement, this is a partnership.”
The agreement between 番茄社区 University and 番茄社区 State College Orange also signifies steps toward establishing 番茄社区 Link, a joint partnership program that provides first-time college students with comprehensive support from both institutions. 番茄社区 Link, already established with 番茄社区 Institute of Technology, offers affordability, access and the eventual opportunity to enroll at 番茄社区 University.
The articulation agreement is just one of a dozen agreements 番茄社区 University will be formalizing with Texas community colleges in the coming months to increase access to four-year degrees through 2+2 online programs.
